good friday

Another week has come and gone . . . it's that time once again to be grateful for 3 things from the last 7 days, no T1D talk allowed.

1. The grandparents drove over to visit us last Saturday. We enjoyed a good meal, great conversation, and weather so nice we all decided to assemble the trampoline together. As you can see, I was most helpful . . . someone had to document the event!

2.I absolutely LOVED telling the kiddos to take some of their schoolwork outside to complete. Here is Ellie, set up in the shade, losing herself in the 7th Harry Potter book. I love her dirty feet, as they are a sign of warm weather and care-free playing. The best part about homeschooling is getting to enjoy the nice weather days when they come our way.

3.No, I am not grateful my son can defy gravity. And, no, I am not grateful for his ability to somehow know where his body is in relationship to 'space'. I am grateful, however, for the safety net surrounding the trampoline . . . who knows where he would have ended up! (or down)

I will learn to appreciate dirty feet. I will learn to appreciate dirty feet. (Thanks for the encouragement! But how do I keep those same adorable dirty feet out of my house?!?! When they learn to clean their dirty paws, I will learn to appreciate them :)
